Answer 2

After the defeat at Plassey, Sirajuddaulah was assassinated and Mir Jafar was made the Nawab.

Mir Jafar was just a puppet in the hands of Britishers.

In 1764, the battle of Buxar was fought between Britishers and Mir Qasim, when  Mir Qasim denied  the privilages given to Britishers.

Mir Qasim abolished the trade duty for everyone and transfered his capital from Murshidabad to Mungair. But this was against the interest of British and they declared war.

In this battle Mir  Qasim,the nawab of Bengal; Shujauddaula, the nawab of Awadh and Shah Alam the Mughal King fought against British and British forces were led by Hector Munro. 

In this battle British become victorious and they decided to control the territory by there own.

In 1765, the Mughal emperor appointed the company as the Diwan of the provinces of Bengal and they also got the diwani rights of Bihar and Odisha.
